Trees and plants don't produce co2, they absorb it

Until the plants die, then the CO2 is released as they rot down. Composting releases CO2 and sometimes methane. Under the right conditions (e.g. peat bogs), a proportion gets trapped and buried to eventually make coal.

In the wild, it's a balanced cycle where CO2 consumed by living vegetation is offset by CO2 released by dead vegetation.
 
This would fail an MOT, wouldn't it?

Hmm looks like a long standing issue as well given that's clearly hammerite or similar brushed on, once you start poking at that you're probably going to go straight through..and end up having to grind a lot of sill out to get back to clean metal.

Edit looking at other pictures appears to have been patched multiple times probably new sill time if the rest of the car is worth it.

It's a POS 307SW, definitely not worth saving, pretty sure it only cost the father in law a few hundred £ so it was never intended to be a long term car, I think he was just hoping it'd get thru one more test but I doubt it

Might get lucky with another patch, but given the other holes water will have sat in the sill and it's probably going to have the rigidity of wet lettuce.

If someone is sad about a situation that can not be changed is helping them to think its not as bad as other people in worse situations giving them a Coping Mechanism or patronising them?

For example if they had a child and they posted on facebook they was said because that baby will have its 1st birthday in lockdown, and someone said to them it could be worse and gave them a link to kids in a refugee camp having a birthday with no home, no parents and no family, Is that patronising? its the sort of thing my parents said to try and make me think things arn't as bad as they seem all the time to try and make me less sad. so now i am confused

It's not patronising to demonstrate the person needs to develop a sense of proportion.

My little boy will have his birthday (end of May) in lockdown. My daughter may be no better off with her birthday end of September. They will deal with it and so will their parents.
